First Oil change with use of a MAGNET

I like to do my first oil change at 500 miles. I did so today. After draining the OEM oil, I ran a large magnet thru the oil catch pan. The results were quite surprising.
The magnet picked up HUNDREDS of metal shards, some as big as a quarter inch.
The attached photo shows the gory details.
